Astrid, great piece! I would think that the Oliva attribution is correct -- but wait what the experts say...

If the vase comes from ebay, I have seen it too, and was quite tempted to bid on it (but decided to go for the Ichendorf piece)

I can only show two new purchases (nice, but nothing spectacular):- small Jaroslav Beranek "Andromeda" vase, 12.5 cm high- Emanuel Beranek vase, 23 cm high (I guess PN 5987, though the hole is in the wrong place)

And I have to admit that I suffered a severe attack of jealousy today when I browsed through David's gallery and saw his new Vizner vase

I'm so happy with my newest buy... a Roubicek 7212/17 just like the one David posted in the original 'Skrdlovice' thread. I thought it looked appealing in photographs, but in real life, it's even better.

Unusual addition, Michael. Very unSkrdlovice-like, if there is such an animal. Interesting the range of variations, too. I'm coming to see the pattern books as more of a rough guide than a tight prescription.
